Describe it as documented. > Hebno never writes to a connected system without a member confirming a card. Finance and ERP writes are drafts only. > Do not discuss commercial terms. Direct commercial questions to support@hebno.com. > Start with /index and /get-started/quickstart. # Close > Read Close leads, contacts, opportunities and activities in Hebno, and add notes, tasks, call logs and opportunity status changes after you confirm. The Close integration shows your sales activity next to your client work. Ask what stage an opportunity is at, who you have spoken to at a lead, or what was said on the last call, and Hebno answers from Close with each record cited. When a request implies a change, such as logging a call or moving an opportunity to a new status, Hebno shows a confirmation card and writes to Close only after you confirm. ## At a glance | | | | - | - | | **Connection** | Personal connection. Each member connects their own Close user. | | **Default access** | Read and write | | **Attach** | Leads, contacts, opportunities, Smart Views | | **Search** | Hebno searches Close when a request mentions a client, contact, opportunity, status, call, email or task | | **Link** | A project links to a Close lead and to one or more opportunities | | **Write** | Add a note, create a task, update an opportunity status, log a call. Every write needs a person to confirm. | ## Before you start You need: * A Close user in the organisation that contains your leads. * A Close role that lets you view and edit the leads you work on. Close admins manage roles under **Settings → Roles & Permissions**. * An allowed integration. An owner or admin sets **Close** to **Allow** under **Admin → Connectors → Catalogue**. Hebno requests these OAuth scopes: | Scope | Why Hebno needs it | | - | - | | `all.full_access` | Read leads, contacts, opportunities, activities and tasks through the Close API as you. Close offers one scope for its API, and Hebno uses it only for the reads and confirmed writes on this page. | | `offline_access` | Renews access with a refresh token so you are not asked to sign in again | Your Close role still applies on top of the scope. If your role cannot edit a lead, Hebno cannot edit it either. ## Connect Close **1. Start the connection** Open **Settings → Connections**, find **Close** and select **Connect**. You can also select **Connect** from the prompt in a chat. **2. Sign in to Close** Sign in, choose the organisation if you belong to more than one, and select **Authorize**. **3. Return to Hebno** The card shows **Connected** with your Close organisation name. Hebno reads and writes with your own permissions, so you see only the leads and activities your Close role allows. Tokens are encrypted at rest. Select **Disconnect** at any time, or ask an admin to revoke the connection under **Admin → Connectors → Connections**. You can also revoke Hebno in Close under **Settings → Connected Apps**. ## What Hebno reads | Close object | Fields Hebno uses | Typical questions | | - | - | - | | **Lead** | Name, URL, description, lead status, addresses, custom fields | "What do we know about Contoso Retail?" | | **Contact** | Name, title, emails, phone numbers, lead | "Who are our contacts at Contoso?" | | **Opportunity** | Status, pipeline, value, value period, confidence, expected close date, owner, note | "Which Contoso opportunities are active and when do they close?" | | **Activity** | Notes, calls with duration, disposition and notes, emails, meetings, SMS, with dates and users | "What did Priya Nair say on our last call?" | | **Task** | Text, due date, assignee, completed flag, lead | "What follow-ups are open on Contoso?" | | **Smart View** | Name and the leads it matches | "Which leads in my Retail pipeline view have no activity this month?" | | **Statuses and pipelines** | Lead statuses, opportunity statuses with type active, won or lost, pipeline names | "Which statuses count as won in the Advisory pipeline?" | Reads are live. Hebno queries Close when a request needs it. Only what a reply used is stored with the conversation as its sources. Hebno reads call notes and transcripts where Close has them, and does not play or store call recordings. > [!WARNING] > > Excerpts a reply uses become part of the conversation. Anyone you share the conversation with can read them, including notes, email snippets and contact details from Close. ## What Hebno writes Every write appears first as a confirmation card. You can change any field before you select **Confirm**. | Action | Close object | Fields on the card | | - | - | - | | **Add a note** | Note activity | Lead, contact, note text | | **Create a task** | Task | Lead, text, due date, assignee | | **Update an opportunity status** | Opportunity | Opportunity, status, value, confidence, expected close date | | **Log a call** | Call activity | Lead, contact, direction, date and time, duration, outcome, notes | ![Confirmation card for Close with editable fields](https://mintcdn.com/hebno/JIjAXWoGoB3PLSSb/images/card-close.png?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=JIjAXWoGoB3PLSSb\&q=85\&s=001625c9d175f66ab6b2866bbb4db47d) A Close change pending confirmation. Nothing is written until you confirm. Calls Hebno logs are manual call records. Hebno never places calls, sends email or SMS, enrols contacts in workflows, deletes or merges leads, or changes statuses and pipelines in Close. ```mermaid theme={"system"} sequenceDiagram participant You participant Hebno participant Close You->>Hebno: Log my 20 minute call with Priya on Contoso Hebno->>Close: Find the Contoso lead and Priya Close-->>Hebno: Lead Contoso Retail, contact Priya Nair Hebno-->>You: Confirmation card with lead, contact, duration, notes You->>Hebno: Confirm Hebno->>Close: Create the call activity as you Close-->>Hebno: Call logged Hebno-->>You: Done, with a link to the lead ``` Writes are made as your Close user, so the activity feed shows you as the author. ## Link a project to a lead and an opportunity Linking marks which Close records belong to a project, so you can ask "where are we with the client?" without naming the lead. 1. Open the project and select **Brain**. 2. Under **Linked records**, select **Link record**, then **Close**. 3. Search for the lead and select it. Repeat to add the opportunities that belong to the engagement. In chats tagged to the project, Hebno starts with the linked lead and opportunities for any client or pipeline question, and cards for notes, tasks and calls default to them. See [Linked records](https://hebno.com/docs/projects/linked-records.md). ## Use Close in chat * **Attach**: open the **+** menu, choose **Sources → Close**, and pick a lead, contact, opportunity or Smart View. Or type `/` and choose **Close**. * **Ask**: name the client, contact or opportunity in your request. For example: > Summarise every call and email with Contoso Retail since 1 October and list what they asked us for. > Which active opportunities in the Advisory pipeline close in November 2026 and have no task due? > Mark the Contoso Phase 2 opportunity as Won at 48,000 and add a task for Sarah Chen to send the engagement letter by 6 November. * **Research runs** show a **Reviewing Close** step, with a chip for each lead, opportunity and activity it read. * **Agents** can read Close on a schedule, for example a Monday brief on opportunities due to close this month. Writes an agent proposes appear in [agent approvals](https://hebno.com/docs/automate/agent-approvals.md) for review. ## Troubleshooting | Symptom | Fix | | - | - | | Hebno cannot find a lead you can open in Close | Check that you connected the right Close organisation. Disconnect and reconnect, choosing the correct one. | | A write fails with **403 Forbidden** | Your Close role cannot edit that lead or opportunity. Ask a Close admin to check **Roles & Permissions**. | | A status update fails with a validation message | The status belongs to a different pipeline from the opportunity. Pick a status from the opportunity's pipeline on the card. | | A call shows no transcript | Close has no transcript or notes for that call. Hebno reads only what the call record contains. | | **Reconnect Close** appears | The authorisation was revoked in Close or the refresh token expired. Select **Connect** to authorise again. | | Requests fail with **429 Too Many Requests** | Close limits requests per organisation and returns a reset time. Hebno waits for that time and retries once, then shows the message. | ## Related * [How integrations work](https://hebno.com/docs/integrations/index.md) * [Permissions and access](https://hebno.com/docs/integrations/permissions-and-access.md) * [Linked records](https://hebno.com/docs/projects/linked-records.md) * [Pipedrive](https://hebno.com/docs/integrations/pipedrive.md) * [HubSpot](https://hebno.com/docs/integrations/hubspot.md) This documentation is built and hosted on [Mintlify](https://mintlify.com), a developer documentation platform.
